Answer:
The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
Find the highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10%.
This is the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.
The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.
Answer: y= - 4x+18
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: y=mx+b
***remember: b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.
m=
3= x1
2= x2
6= y1
10=y2
m==
= -4
m=-4
Now we have y=-4x+b , so let's find b.
You can use either (x,y) such as (3,6) or (2,10) point you want..the answer will be the same:
(3,6). y=mx+b or 6=-4 × 3+b, or solving for b: b=6-(-4)(3). b=18.
(2,10). y=mx+b or 10=-4 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=10-(-4)(2). b=18.
Equation of the line: y=-4x+18
